It is not complete until you see the new movie, America; Imagine a World Without Her, from author Dinesh D’Souza.  I had the opportunity to see this documentary based upon the new book by the same name.  Incidentally, D’Souza’s book is now selling twice as well as former First Lady Hillary Clinton’s Hard Choices.   The movie also had a very strong opening at number ten with only 1,000 theater showings competing with many films that had around 3,000 screens. 
 
The very engaging and well-made movie is extremely important, particularly for young people, millions of whom have been misled about the history of America.  The film is a very honest and fair look at five common historical criticisms of America that liberals have successfully propagated through authors like Howard Zinn’s multi-million selling, People’s History of the United States, which is used by numerous high schools and colleges. 
 
Notions like, “America was built upon slavery and stolen lands” is an increasingly common view.  It may explain why a new Pew survey has found that a full 60 percent of Americans who consider themselves, “liberal” say that they are not proud to be Americans.  By contrast Pew found that around 80 percent of “conservatives” say that they are proud to be Americans.  This second group also places a far greater value on virtues of honor and duty according to Pew.
 
Far from being merely a snarky political smear over patriotism, a negative view of America has a very dangerous side.  It helps to propel those forces which want to “fundamentally transform” America into something our founders never intended and something that would never be “a shining city on a hill” to the world.
 
America is very intellectually engaging, much like hearing a good college professor.  While there are clearly some disturbing beliefs discussed in the film, there is also a great deal of uplifting patriotism and imagery in the movie.  It is not as heavy or discouraging as D’Souza’s 2016 movie.   America is a film that I would strongly recommend your seeing and supporting in theaters now to help with its distribution to more screens and for future DVD sales both of which will help with spreading the important messages of the movie.
